It's about the sound that they create. Not what's written on the sheet.

Well this is why I don't value singers who don't write their own lyrics particularly highly.
A voice is more than an instrument - while it can create sounds like a piano and guitar, it can use language to convey more meaning to a song than just an instrumental can. Songs can be brilliant combinations of stories and music.
