In popular culture
- In series two of Brainiac: Science Abuse, the song "You Can't Stop Rock 'n' Roll" was used in a recurring experiment to show what things could be used to "stop rock 'n' roll". The experiment would consist of a stereo playing the song being destroyed in an overly extreme fashion using various chemicals, objects and explosives to which the presenter would then humoursly declare that you can in fact "stop rock 'n' roll" with said method.[12]
- In the 2010 film Jackass 3D, "The Kids Are Back" is played during the opening credits.
