It won two Grammy Awards in 1988 for Song of the Year and Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or Television. It also earned an Academy Award nomination in 1987 for Best Original Song.  Spielberg's tale is about a group of mice who after immigrating toNew York from Russia become separated and Fievel has to find his way back to his family.
