I'm not sure we need another Bible translation, but this one looks interesting. The Voice is a new Bible translation project that is pretty unique. Here's their description:
-----
A Scripture Project To Rediscover The Story Of The Bible
The Voice Is A New And Dynamic Translation Of The Bible That Brings The Biblical Narrative To Life, Representing A Collaboration Among Scholars, Writers, Musicians, And Other Artists.
Four Key Words Describe The Vision Of This Project:

You can download the book of John at their website. I'm going to take a look at it this week and I'll comment on it once I read it.
Here's a video explaining The Voice as well.

It sounds like a great idea. It may be an alternative for people who are more right brained and creative to connect with the Bible. I think there's something wrong with their download link right now 'cause I kept getting an error when I tried to download John
