I think it would do well commercially. Prayer is such a well known song that everyone would be curious to hear the "new" version of it. And once they heard how much heart the song has, I think it would be a success. On the other hand, many people have already heard the acoustic version already and it may not sound as fresh and new as was hoped.
Also think about this. It would add fuel to the fire for the Bon Jovi haters. Think of how satisfying it would be to them to tell everyone that Bon Jovi are has beens who are trying to go back and milk one of their biggest hits just to keep afloat. We know that's not true, but I can just hear it now.
KYT!
