My sister also got listening fatigue and I set up her Ipod with some folk music. That really helped. So try other genres instead of the same-old-ones. I quickly found the radio plays the same 200 songs over and over with only an occasional otre.
Youtube has a LOT of music, so it's easy to try out stuff, download it, see if it works for you.

I've always been that way--I get bored with things easily. I rarely see a movie twice until sufficient time has passed, usually several years, because I have good recall memory and get bored if I already know all the story line. After a few years memory fades enough to rewatch it, but I of course still know how it will end, but at least I have forgotten some of the good dialog. Same for books. Same for music too. Today I listen to SiriusXM 80s on 8 a lot. I was a teenager during most of the 1970s but I kind of missed out on most of the music of the 1980s as I was in college, graduate school, and starting a new career, and frankly I had so little time to listen to music in that decade. I like it quiet when I read and study. So now three decades later I'm discovering a lot of the 80s music. That is fun. Life is too short to get stuck in ruts. I've already blown through 60 some odd years, so I don't want to blow through the rest in a rut. I want to go out the way I came in--exploring new things!
