"Standing There" is a song recorded by English band The Creatures aka singer Siouxsie Sioux and drummer Budgie. It was co-produced by Mike Hedges.

It is the lead single of Boomerang, the second album by The Creatures. Melody Maker wrote:

“ "STANDING There", the stampeding first single from the "Boomerang" album, deals with this self-same battle of the sexes but deliberately brings it all back home. ”
 
— Steve Sutherland[1]

The B-side "Divided" was not included on the album, contrary to the extra B-side "Solar Choir", which was added on the cd format.
