"Creative" is a song by Scottish singer Leon Jackson. It was released in November 2008 as the third single from his debut album Right Now (2008). The song was written by Chris Porter, Howard New and Peter Gordeno. The song peaked at number 94 on the UK Singles Chart.
It was released as a digital download in November 2008 by Syco Music and Sony BMG. He performed the song live for the first time during BBC Children in Need in front of a live studio audience at BBC Television Centre, London.
The BBC said: "'Creative' is a sassy, rumba-rhythmed number where Leon soars above, hinting at his prowess in the boudoir, this is easily the most memorable original track here." Digital Spy said that the song "swings pretty nicely in a Bublé-esque fashion", they also commented that the album as a whole lacked individuality despite occasional highlights like "Creative".
A music video for the song shows Jackson performing the song in front of a big band, the video also shows Jackson trying to impress a female which features in the video. The female does pay much attention to Jackson until the end of the video when she seems to pay slight attention to Jackson.
