(Anthony Burgess’ Nadsat glossary in the novel shows the spelling to be “krovvy”, not kroovy: ('krovvy:' [Russian > krovy' ] blood)) The lyrics include the phrases "See heaven, flash, a horrorshow..." and "...take me to the home..." which are also both references to the book.

The song was included on the soundtrack to the movies Rollerball (2002) and Walking Tall (2004), as well as the Atari game Test Drive: Eve of Destruction.

In the music video for "Never Gonna Stop," Zombie and others are dressed as Alex DeLarge and his droogs from the film of A Clockwork Orange.

The actor Tom Towles, who played Lieutenant George Wydell in Rob Zombie's film House of 1000 Corpses, appears in the video.

In 2011, mixologist Darcy O'Neil was inspired by the video to create a red-colored cocktail, echoing Burgess's Nadsat term "kroovy" as blood.
