Reception

JB HiFi reviewer said "The songs on Lior's second album Corner of an Endless Road are intensely personal and candid. They represent landmarks in the emotional journey throughout the last two years of Lior's career and life. Lior worked closely with producer François Tétaz at matching the emotional range of the songs with musical choices that intimately represent who he is, as a musician and a person.... Corner of an Endless Road is a true representation of Lior's musical landscape."[2]

Bernard Zuel from Sydney Morning Herald said the songs are "pretty low key (with) the main component being pop with a decidedly late '60s-early '70s Paul McCartney feel."[3]
