It's a paraphrasing of part of the Feb. 2006 UNCUT interview:

VERLAINE SLAMS SWEET CAROLINE CROONER

NEIL DIAMOND

TELEVISION vocalist TOM VERLAINE has blasted fellow singer NEIL 
DIAMOND'S ability to carry a tune.

The MARQUEE MOON rocker ranks the veteran singer/songwriter among the 
top five singers he "can't bear to hear" - with his own vocals 
following close behind at number six.

The 56-year-old says, "Neil (Diamond) is a much worse singer than me, 
and I'm right up there with the worst.

"I'll tell you who the most underrated singer is: TODD RUNDGREN. He's 
astonishing."
