RE: "musicality"

If a bird can sing a beautiful song, can't that be musical? What kind of technique do think a bird has?
If I improved by playing constantly for the joy or need of playing I would be a better musician than if I played to improve to a point where I could be musical. A point that woouldn't exist unless I clocked x amount of hours or worked up the tempo to 140 or whatever. I would like to ask again: what is the real advantage of separating the concept of technical facility with the more mysterious magical "musicality"?
Does anybody have any comments as to how other cultures might respond to these notions of musicality?
As for me, I say "It's all music, of course it's music, what else would it be?"
