You Think You're Tough is a single written and recorded by American glam metal quintet Ratt. It appears as the second track of their first release Ratt EP. It is considered to be the band's first hit. It was noted as a fine example of mid-80's glam metal. Many view Ratt as one of the pioneering acts of the L.A. music scene.
The music video for the song was most likely shot after the release of Out of the Cellar since the video featured scenes from the band's "Round and Round", "Wanted Man" and "Back for More" music videos. The video also had several cameos of heavy metal superstar Ozzy Osbourne.
