Release and promotion

To promote the song, Jackson appeared on the 2008 series of Children in Need where he performed the song in live in front of a studio audience as BBC Television Centre in London. This is known to be the only time that Jackson performed the track on national television in order to promote the release of the single.
Music video
[edit]The music video for "Creative" shows Jackson performing the song in front of a big band. Also, in the video Jackson is trying to impress a female which features in the video. Throughout the video the female does not pay much attention to Jackson but however towards the end of the video the female seems to pay slight attention to Jackson.
Critical reception
[edit]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."[4]
