In terms of music history, important developments tend to form around a group of composers, making it difficult to pinpoint a single piece. In terms of affecting lives and larger political structures, it's also hard to say. Who knows how many soldiers have ended up killing more people because they were swayed by various pieces of propaganda music? Then there are revolutionary songs, like the opera "La muette de Portici", which helped start the Belgian Revolution.

That said, the most important song I can think of is "El pueblo unido jamás será vencido," the anthem of Chilean's socialist movement. The song has been used and translated by Portuguese revolutionaries, Iranian revolutionaries, Filipino revolutionaries, Argentinian revolutionaries and used in Tunisian protests, as well as other various campaigns.
