I'd have to go with 窶伉税陳エ窶堙姑筑ニ停?ケニ坦 (Sougen No Marco) performed by 窶佚・ツ絶┐窶ケv窶敕シナスq (Kumiko Oosugi)
It's the opening theme song from the series, 窶「テェ窶堙ー窶堋ス窶堋ク窶堙銀?堙?スOツ静ァ窶板「 (Haha Wo Tazunete Sanzen-ri). The lyric describes a young Italian boy from Genoa, Marco, waking up to another day of lonesome journey through the flat plains of Peru/Ecuador (can't remember exactly where...but it is somewhere in the south america) in search of his long lost mother who had left home to work in Argentina to provide for her family back home. The music is heavily influenced by the folk music of the south america with a very effective use of the traditional instruments. A GREAT song.
The series has been made into a couple of feature-length movies and maybe available on DVD outside Japan. The original series is the best, though. The animation is beautifully drawn with art direction by none other than pre-Nausicaa Hayao Miyazaki.
The song really captures the spirit of this wonderful series that I used to love as a child (and still do).
