>>A little levity,
While searching for songs in Koine, I stumbled across this video:
All Things Are Better in Koine. A Tongue-in-cheek music video about
Biblical
Greek. Song written and recorded by Derek North, rap section composed
by Sam Casucci, video directed and edited by Nick Casucci.

That is cute. I especially liked the scene where he is crossing off all the
English versions...
However, for those of us who started off with four years of Classical Greek,
four semesters of Koine, no matter how grueling, seems a bit thin... :)
For my thoughs on the value of a good English translation, however:
