i use fastest tube, but there are many such plugins.

usually they add a download link below the youtube video. click it and
it downloads the video

often, there's a choice of what resolution video to download and
sometimes a choice of format, but if you only want the video, there's
little reason to download anything other than the lowest resolution.

you don't have to play it. just download the video, open it in
quicktime player, extract the audio and save it to a new file, then
listen to it whenever you want.
